Rosemary reviewed: Festive Wreath - Felted Decoration

"Just wanted to say a huge thank you for a lovely day at our Christmas wreath-making workshop. I had never done any kind of felting activity before but you explained and demonstrated each step so clearly and I really enjoyed the needle felting. It was a lovely environment to work in and the wool and locks were such lovely materials to work with."

Marjorie reviewed: Felt Lampshades

"Nice to be relaxed and not under too much time pressure, but perhaps not quite enough to do. Would have been nice to fill the whole day."

Emma Jackson (Silversoles - Felted Textiles) responded:

"Good to hear you felt relaxed. I'd love to deliver the session in a day, however ensuring the felt is dry enough to work with means the sessions have to be delivered over two half day session. (For your group combined over a day via online meeting / remotely & in person). Hope you liked the result of your make & your finished lampshade."
